They had to rebuild their entire XI basically and Saka, Smith-Rowe, the 2 CB signings and Tomiyasu, Tavares and Ramsdale are all playing well, which is the most important thing. Sambi Lokonga and Maitland-Niles are doing okay. They're probably not going to get top 4 this year, but only Odegaard and Tierney are struggling at the moment among the players young enough to matter for their rebuild. So yeah, I can't imagine he'll be in trouble unless they really really struggle.
That said, they've only scored 13 goals in 11 games so I don't think they're gonna get up to much this year and will probably finish like 6th or 7th.
You could argue that some f those signings he didn't have to make. He let go better players than he brought in.
He let go of Emi Martinez and replaced him with a weaker GK although Ramsdale has done well.
Let go of Guendouzi and replaced him with Sambi.
And instead of buying Ben White, he could of given Saliba a chance.
